We have a new family member! After spending one month with Fuwawa, we fell in love and decided to adopt her. I still can’t believe that we have our own dog now!
When a pet in ARK has found a forever home, the round pendant is exchanged with a star pendant. Here is Fuwawa with her new star pendant!
Sadly Fuwawa was debarked by her previous owner so she couldn’t make a proper bark. But each day she is looking happier and more comfortable. Every night she sleeps beside Sidra and enjoys being petted until both of them fall asleep.
In the morning she would wake my husband and me up by giving these little bites on the arms or shoulders or pawing my hair. Sometimes she would play with my hair or smell it but then my hair would get tangled up between her teeth. Then of course she would cough on my head -_-
She used to sleep on her bed but when we got a new couch, she decided that it is her new bed. It is where she spends her days mostly now. Her post is by the window where she can look outside and silently bark at people.
We also have a part-time pet cat! One day a cat followed Sidra home, I gave the cat some cat food and milk (I always have spare cat food for the neighborhood cats). Since then she has been coming twice a day to join Fuwawa’s daily walk from start to finish. It is so funny, people always seems confused to see us walking a dog, followed by a cat. Fuwawa doesn’t seem to mind the cat although the cat sometimes slapped her. But the cat always has her claws retracted, so I think she just wants to give a warning. I plan to get the cat spayed as I have no intention of taking care a litter of kitten in the future.
We will still foster dogs in the future and now we have Fuwawa as my assistant!

Congratulation Fuwawa on your new home! It’s wonderful to adopt a pet, it’s so good to see someone open their heart and home to a pup who needs one.
Fuwawa seems like a perfect family fit, so happy for you! Sidra must be in heaven. As for kitties, I have spayed/neutered over 15 neighborhood cats, and can attest to what happens when the females have litters. They live with us! But that has been part of my volunteer work. I love when the doggies and kitties get along. ;)
Fifteen cats?! I admire your dedication, there should be more people like you! Stray cats are quite a problem here. People feels sorry for them so they keep feeding them (like what I do), so they keep multiplying. I want to be more responsible about them.
You can definitely see Fuwawa’s personality come out in her photos. Soo happy for all of you :-)
Yay, I’m so happy for you guys! I’ve been loving all your Fuwawa pics on IG– she seems like such a great fit for your family!
She’s a darling! It’s funny how different she acted once we adopted her. When we finished her forms, people at the adoption event commented how she acted like she was ‘our dog’ and kept following me :)
This is such good news! I look forward to your next foster adventure! And thank you for ‘turning us on’ to the Japanese dog clothes site – the best dog clothes patterns I have found so far. Best to your family. cal
congrats! this is so sweet! animals are such amazing family members
